Not a good answer. To negotiate, all you need is something the other guys wants(your labor), a mouth, and a brain.

I'll help you by providing a better answer.

If individuals are incapable of negotiating a fair wage it is because labor rates are set by the market....and not individuals.

Parsimony in economics arguments always make me laugh, so thanks for that. I'd probably give it a 3rd, for effort. No, lack of resources is very much a solid answer, regardless of whether you want to assess the (in)flexibility of labour markets.

Also HW, FWIW, I do agree with a lot of issues you raise regarding minimum wage legislation. I don't live in the US and I'm not (overly) familiar with the economic systems at play there, but in the Uk there have been mixed results, some positive some negative.
